Are we doing more than just keeping with the Kardashian family drama or a rich girl who cried wolf publicity stunt?

This week, the whole world has been keeping up with the Kardashians. However, we're not just keeping up the Kardashian fam drama but we're keeping up with the alleged gunpoint robbery in Paris Saturday against Kim Kardashian West.

Although no one wants to believe this to be true, many people are wondering if this crime was an actual crisis or if it was a planned publicity stunt. What we do know is that people everywhere are raising eyebrows, asking questions, and not everybody is expressing sympathy for Kardashian West or her family.

So, down to business. Who, what, where, when, why, and most importantly: HOW?!

Well, according to a CNN article, "The French Interior Ministry said the culprits were disguised as police officers. Five men threatened the concierge at the mansion with a weapon, handcuffed him and forced him to open the private apartment. Two of the men were able to gain entry to Kardashian West's room, according to the Paris prosecutor's office, and a gun was held to her head."

In addition, the jewelry that was stolen has not even been identified as hers or jewelry she had been borrowing for the Paris Fashion Show she was attending. If the jewelry was not hers and the crime comes out as a stunt, then we know she will be in big trouble.

We also go on to read that she was pleading for her life as she was tied up in a bathroom but the funny thing is that there is absolutely no surveillance of the incident whatsoever thus far.

In a Fox News article, a police expert and former DEA agent, Michael Levine said that the robbery incident could unsurprisingly be an "elaborate hoax." As far as police force and action goes in this case, Levine says, "I'm certain they will say nothing. They have enough problems. The amount of terrorism problems, threats, and investigations ongoing in France right now likely has every man and woman with a badge working double-time, so if you wanted to run a hoax or publicity stunt, I am not saying that is what they did, but France would be the place to do it."

On another note, a question I have running through my head is why would Kardashian West even think about seeking this type of publicity when she and her husband are already infamous around the world? It also seems very "lucky" that her children happened to be at home for this robbery as well.

I know what most of you are probably thinking: how the hell could Kim Kardashian West get tied up, robbed of more than 10 million dollars in jewelry and phones, have no surveillance of it, be physically unharmed and not be questioned by authorities. Well, when you are as famous and wealthy as this family, police forces will not want to question her right away, accuse her of a hoax, and have a lawsuit after them the next day as well. But, only time will tell and if the case unravels to be a hoax then the Kardashians might just go down in history as no better than attention whores.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
